Selling HTC S621 - HTC Excalibur

Hi
I will soon sell my HTC S621 on eBay and I want to get the most from it.
I installed WinMo 6.1. I think it's unlocked but I'm not sure and I can't get another provider's SIM to test. Is there another way to make sure it's unlocked ?
Should I install another version of WinMo ?
Thanks for your advice

Move thread
Welcome to the forum
There is a section called marketplace for this proposes:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=476

I don't try to sell my phone here. I'm just asking some advice on which OS I should install and how to know if the phone is unlocked.

any 6.1 rom should do, and if theres anybody with an at&t phone ask them if they can test your phone for you. Trac-phone cards dont work, I tried it.

Upgrade Cingular 8525....

Hi guys...
I have cingular 8525. I think it's has been unlocked from the store where I bought it, because I can use it in my country using local network.
The question is If I want to upgrade my ROM can I use custom any ROM that has been posted here?
Thanks all for the help
sim unlock is good but you should hard spl your device to prevent bricking it. there are many threads about this and xda wiki is pretty filled with this stuff so i'd say do your reading/studying and u'll be fine. i'm pretty sure all your questions have been answered, just a matter of reading which does you no harm.

HTC S620 unlocking software or code

Hi,
I'm New to these forum and not very technical when it comes to mobiles so please excuse me and Im sure this question has been answered 100 times but
I have just brought a HTC S620 and is locked to BT, im trying to get a software to unlock the phone, as I tried buying a code through the net and they couldnt generate one, they said to try with software
Does anyone know of a software i can download?
Many Thanks in advance

Verizon Rhodium "newbie" quesiton please help (unlocking). I have unlocked the SIM

Verizon Rhodium "newbie" quesiton please help (unlocking). I have unlocked the SIM
Sorry if my question is too stupid but here it is:
I own a verizon branded HTC touch pro 2. (Rhodium) I ask verizon for the sim unlock code and they provide me with one. Im now able to put in my at&t card and use it, it works..
My question is: does this mean my phone is fully unlocked?.
can I know install all this great roms I see around, worry free?
or is there something else that has to be done in order to install the cooked roms.
if can install the roms and you can provide me with first time steps as well it would be greatly appriciated.
I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure unlocking the SIM is separate from unlocking the phone (HardSPL and allowing unsigned firmware).
if this is correct could someone please explain or post a link as to what HardSPL is . and perhaps where there is a step by step guide on what I need to do in order to install roms
thanks a bunch.
I don't think there's a HardSPL for CDMA phones yet (don't hold me to that), but the ROM development sub-forum is where you want to go. Read the stickies there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=490
HardSPL for CDMA (Verizon, Sprint) is not out yet.
You can not flash ROMs at this time. Well, you can try... and end up with a bricked phone, but that's totally your call.
thanks everyone.

[Q] ROM upgrade question??

hello guys
i have the HTC Touch Diamond (p3700) from rogers, and i was wondering since the phone is locked to the rogers network, is it possible for me to install a custom rom on the phone?? or do i have to do the sim unlock to do that??
sorry, this might be a noob question but i need the question answered as i had the O2 Xda Mini S before my HTC which was unlocked and this is the first time i actually purchased a phone from rogers since i get all my phones from out canada
thanks for your help guys, really appreciate it
i have a rogers HTC diamond as well.. and its got the winmob 6.1 5.2.19965 build 1.2.3 Year 2008.. the HTC website doesnt let me download the feb 2009 firmware as the device is not suitable..
a few simple Noob questions please..
1 - its working in my country with other network sims, all of them but the phone strartup says rogers... is my cell unlocked or not?
2 - will Hard Spl remove everytrace of rogers from my phone? (i actually wana debrand it from rogers to plain standard retail version)..
3 - Will any firmare upgrade using hardspl method work on my cell?.. and what will happen to the orignal FW? will it be erased permanently, or will it still be stored in a secret storage, so that it can be retrieved later when i plan to sell it later and rest to factory defaults?
Again, as a newcomer and a noob at the Xda dev scene, i would apreciate any kind of help .
thanks in anticipation..

Hi,
As far as I know, you should be able to install any ROM you want.
But make sure you have flashed Hard-SPL Olinex Unsigned,
just try the link in my sig and follow steps 6 - 11.
You still need an unlocker to make it possible using other networks though.

1. Yes your phone is unlocked, but you are using a rogers customized ROM. Try a different ROM to remove it.
2. No, Hard-SPL will not remove it. You'll need to flash another ROM to do that.
3. Firstly, if you are flashing/upgrading a new firmware (we call it ROM) then all data will permanently removed.
There are some packs to revert your ROM back to stock, but I don't know if there are any Rogers ROM's available on the net.
I hope I have answered all your questions.
Good luck both!

hey thanks a lot for the reply, finally someone replies, and this method will not brick my phone right?? since that is what scares me the most the fact that i mite end up bricking my phone
Thanks a lot Elcondor.. it solved half of my problems..
the only thing is,, i tried the 6.5 Prototype rom and rogers sill show up on the startup screen.. i flashed the splash screen, and still the lower 100pixels appear pink, out of no where..
and i simply wana DEBRAND the whole **** of rogers from it, so that i can upgrade the 2.0.0.00 rom version to the HTC official 2.0.43 version, but evertime i download from there, and try updating it, it says, Model ID not compatible..
is there a way to remove the entire rogers crap from it, and get it cleaned like a retail version?...

No, it shouldn't brick your phone. In fact, Hard-SPL makes your device hardly brickable. Just try it, you will not be dissapointed. But, it's not my responsabillity if you brick you diamond, keep that in mind.

The splash screen is a harder part to do. You need Patchsplash to patch your splash screen. In that way, the splash screen should appear right. Note that the procedure to do that is pretty hard. Here are some more instructions if you didn't get it.
And about a Diamond stock ROM, take a look here. A 2.03.4 ROM including a new radio and the splash screen.
Good luck guys!

No prob my friend, xda-devs is to help each other.
To recommend a ROM is pretty hard, since there are very different kind of ROMs available.
Do you want a ROM with full Diamond2 experience, without WM 6.5(.x) try Gen. Y D2 R4.
Or, do you prefer a light WM6.5(.x) ROM, try BSB 6.5.1. It is pretty fast and light.
In a short time, I am going to release a 6.5.1 ROM (called Condor GT), with very nice graphics and still very fast.
Just give some a shot and you'll soon find out which ROM is the best.
BTW All the ROMS given in this thread are better that stock ROMs, just to be clear

The device you are referring to is not a Blue Angel (heck, I don't even think it is made by HTC). If it is asking for an unlock code, it means that your device is not unlocked, which means that you will not be able to install a custom rom on it until you unlock it. Having said that, there is no HTC device in this whole site that even resembles the ultimate 9502. Chances are that if you do manage to get it unlocked, and flash something from xda-developers.com, you will end up with a brick. Please read before you post, make sure that you are getting a rom meant for your device, and ask plenty of questions before you flash or else you will brick the device.
Good luck.
I hope this can make it clear for u to understand and help me to get rom code
thank you

I understood in the original post what you were asking for. My answer is still the same: this is not a Blue Angel (or a device made by HTC for that matter), we have no way or tools to determine the unlock code for your device. There are two things that you could try
1. Go to a forum that has development for your device (maybe Howardforums, PPCGeeks, etc)
2. Call your provider and see if they have this information. I know that blackberry carriers have this kind of info available (sometimes for a fee though)
Good luck.
and charge your battery to 100% before you flash. if it dies during a flash it'll be worth just as much as a paperweight
Hi
The ROM unlock code is on your box if you still have it. If you don't have your box or have the code written down somewhere, give up now. Before Club I-mate went offline, you could get the code from them (foolish me to think they would always be there), I have tried Telstra support (Australia), but while they are able to flash the ROM, they will not give out the code or how they do it.
An appeal... If any service techs are out there that know how they get the code, and can let us know, there would be a lot of very greatful users.
